These socks look like they’d involve a lot of fancy footwork (or rather, colorwork), but they are actually quite simple! Single-round stripes and an easy-to-memorize stitch pattern are all you need to put your best foot forward. Be prepared to get a lot of questions about these socks, because they were very popular at my knitting group!

Now that all of the Conversation Socks patterns are available as individual PDF downloads (in addition to the discounted eBook), I wanted to make these simple socks available for free as a preview of the rest of the collection. If you enjoyed knitting these socks, consider giving another pattern from the Conversation Socks collection a try!
